First time here (well first time on a forum ever)

[red04]

Hi everyone

Im new to this I have never been on a forum in my life so abit unsure of how it all works and a little nervous about joining.

Well here goes im 24 and I have had anxiety for about 4 years now, I suffer with health anxiety (which is the worst bit) and social anxiety, the only help I have been offered is medication which I would rather not have.

The only person who knows about my anxiety is my partner, I put a 'front' on with others that are close to me as im not great at trusting people and letting them in.

Im looking forward to maybe talking to people who understand who it feels and don't judge x

Hi Red

Welcome to NMP.

I too had not spent a lot of time on forums or any time in chat rooms before coming here.

The relief at speaking to people who understood what I was feeling was unbelievable.

Enjoy the forum and maybe we will see you in chat sometime.
